Washington Capitals Alex Ovechkin - The Great 8 DVD

Named to the NHL's First All-Star Team for a fifth straight season in 2009-10, Washington Capitals LW Alexander Ovechkin's meteoric rise to being one of hockey's true superstars goes back to a classic moment of "love at first sight." At the age of two, he found a hockey stick in a Moscow toy store and wouldn't let go, and he's been playing ever since. Follow the life of Ovechkin, nicknamed "Ovie," as he is mobbed by fans throughout North America and in his native Russia, where he visits his family that encouraged him to find success. But while he honors his fans and reflects on his roots, you'll go inside the life of a driven competitor who is looking ahead and seeking redemption after his Capitals fell far short of the team's goal of winning the Stanley Cup...a wound that has inspired him to train harder and condition his body like he never has before.
